Whole-exome sequencing of a pedigree segregating asthma [PDF]
Background Despite the success of genome-wide association studies for asthma, few, if any, definitively causal variants have been identified and there is still a substantial portion of the heritability of the disease yet to be discovered.

Whole-exome sequencing study of hypospadias
Summary: Hypospadias results from the impaired urethral development, which is influenced by androgens, but its genetic etiology is still unknown. Through whole exome sequencing analysis, we identified NR5A1, SRD5A2, and AR as mutational hotspots in the ...

Whole Exome Sequencing in Atrial Fibrillation.
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a morbid and heritable arrhythmia. Over 35 genes have been reported to underlie AF, most of which were described in small candidate gene association studies. Replication remains lacking for most, and therefore the contribution

The Application of Whole−Exome Sequencing in Patients With FUO [PDF]
BackgroundFever of unknown origin (FUO) is still a challenge for clinicians. Next-generation sequencing technologies, such as whole exome sequencing (WES), can be used to identify genetic defects in patients and assist in diagnosis.

Rapid identification of mutations in GJC2 in primary lymphoedema using whole exome sequencing combined with linkage analysis with delineation of the phenotype. [PDF]
Background: Primary lymphoedema describes a chronic, frequently progressive, failure of lymphatic drainage. This disorder is frequently genetic in origin, and a multigenerational family in which eight individuals developed postnatal lymphoedema of all ...

Whole exome sequencing enhances diagnosis of hereditary bronchiectasis [PDF]
Background Hereditary bronchiectasis refers to a subset of bronchiectasis related to genetic mutations, presenting with common clinical features. Historically, diagnosing this condition has been difficult due to the inaccessibility of diagnostic services
